Be careful,
system("c:\somewhere\test.bat");
should be...
system("c:\\somewhere\\test.bat");
I think.
Have you try with AT /interactive to see the batch in interactive mode and
perhaps see the error displayed ?

Yes, you can send the message form a Win2k server. Another thing to check
on the scheduler thing: Try making a batch file with this in the contents:
set > c:\set.txt
Then check set.txt, and make sure that c:\winnt\system32 or c:\windows
system32 is in the path. Net is not an internal command, it is an exe. I
suspect that the system environment has been changed somehow. Anyway, you
can do what you were trying to do by changing your batch file to:
c:\winnt\system32\net.exe send moin test

Subject: RE: Running Perl Script through Windows 2000 Task Scheduler
well, i tried all methods that everyone mentioned but it didnt work, still
confuse when i directly run the script from a command prompt its work, and
when trying from Win 2000/NT schedular it didnt. anyhow, I use the
Win32::Message extension to use the same thing as mentioned in Roths Book.
Roth, I have a question, can i use that extension to send message from win
2000 server, or i only send message from NT?
thanks,

I think the problem is the missing path in
system("test.bat")
unless test.bat is in the same directory as the Task Scheduler.
So, add the path in e.g. system("c:\somewhere\test.bat");
